A Poem by Jess Holden

A poem about forces fighting one another.

a fight that cannot be won,
isnt truly a fight.

it is a power strugle between forces,
good and evil,
happiness and sadness,
need and want.

the world is balanced like this,
no median,
only black or white.

this is a long life,
full of hills and tremors of the earth shake you,
and what can you do?
you can only hold onto dear life,
and pray for the world to stop moving from benieth your feet.

for some people,
this day never comes.

for others,
this shaking never existed.

the sleepless nights spent wondering if it will ever end,
or ever come,
is one million too many.

we must spend a long life being happy,
and deal with what we have.
